• I was given some advice from a friend recently as I prepare to re-start my attempt to become a fittie, “what you need to do is take a picture of yourself, wearing as few clothes as possible and put it on your fridge”, is what they said. How the frig…

  • A new beginning

    Yes, you’ve heard it before and I’ve definitely said it before, but this time, I really mean it. “Yeah, I’ll start behaving tomorrow”, don’t know about you, but this is something I’ve proclaimed many times, at least five in the last seven days and at some point, if we really…

  • Run Jake run

    All bad thing’s must come to an end and not shoving a sausage roll in my mouth for six months has certainly been a treat I’ve missed. I decided to give them up because I felt they may have been the cause of my lack of weight loss, I now…

  • Cancer

    When it comes to the “C” word, cancer is the one that people avoid most, no one’s comfortable mentioning it and very few actually want to talk about it, as something that will effect one in four of us, the subject shouldn’t really be avoided, no matter how difficult. Last…

  • A hedge too far

    When you’re disabled, even the simplest task can cause issues and there are some jobs that I put off as long as possible, cutting the hedge is one. Paying someone to do it isn’t an option, over 300 quid was the quote two years ago, god knows what it is…

  • Can’t be arsed

    Nobody knows more about the value of movement than me and whilst I do spend time sitting and watching telly, (especially right now cos Wimbledon’s on), I’m also constantly doing jobs and work around the house. I like to keep very active, particularly while the nice weather’s here, doing the…

  • Dad

    I recently mentioned my autobiography and how when I eventually get round to writing it, I’d dedicate a whole chapter to a cousin, well, when it comes to the amount of words given to one person, there’s absolutely no contest over who’d get the most. My dad was everything to…

  • When I think about friends and family no longer with us, one person who always brings a smile to my face is a cousin I had called Wayne, a bear of a man who had a fantastic sense of humour and together we had many great times. I always used…

  • In a rut.

    I’ve been struggling to write recently, two reasons, not much time and no inspiration, the two go together, because as I’ve been so busy, mostly working in my garden, I’ve not done much of anything else, so therefore haven’t experienced what life throw’s at us. The reason I’ve been active…

  • Gifts

    The human body is an amazing thing, which many of us take for granted every day, I think sight is right up there at the top as something I really wouldn’t want to lose, but as we’re constantly told, you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone. There are…

I’m Keith

Welcome to my blog. I’m on a mission to lose weight in order to have a much needed operation, that will hopefully help me regain the gift of mobility. As the title suggests, I also plan to become a fittie, though that might require some plastic surgery. Like the whole population of the world, things have been a bit shit since 2020 and eating all those sausage rolls during lockdown didn’t help. If you want the full story, then read the about page, but if I were you, I’d just crack on with my hopefully humorous anecdotes about life as a fat disabled guy.
